Epson Maintenance Cartridge For Stylus Pro 3800 Printer (T582000)

if you clean your printer a lot this will fill up fast so perhaps purchase 2.

Used with Epson 3800 printer. Easy to install. No issues. Recommend.

you need this tank for used ink in your epson printer

A consumable item for use in an Epson 3880 printer

Great as it keeps the excess ink reservoir clean. Just a bit pricey.

I have a gallery where I sell my photographs... photographs printed on an Epson 3800... the ink tank needed replacing.

Maintenance tank keeps my ink reservoirs clean. Easy as pie to install and my printer is delivering excellent prints once again!

Pros: Long Lasting; Consistent Alignment; Easy InstallationI have used the Epson 3800 w/ a variety of paper products including regular cold pressed water color paper. The Epson 3800 works great I often make 17x25 inch prints ( w/ a 15 inch by 24 inch image area this is close to the golden rectangle )

Epson's 3880 printer requires this tank in the operation of the printer. B&H sells it at a great price.

Must have it for my epson 3800 printer

Pros: Easy InstallationThis cartridge is used in a CAD computer lab printer that only gets used for larger prints and an occasional color print so it sits for up to ten hours per day without any use. It seems that the printer will use quite a bit of ink to clean the heads and thus fills up the maintenance cartridge within two semesters (Mid-August to Beginning of May). This doesn't sound so bad, but for as little as the printer is used it does to me. I do try to keep the printer off and train students to turn it on only when they are ready to print, but with walk-in traffic and lab assistants leaving it on it gets left on way more than I would like.
Furthermore, a "full" maintenance cartridge is mostly white with the bulk of the ink centered around the circular part of the plastic frame so all that nice white absorbent material is not doing any absorbing before the printer deems the maintenance cartridge is full and refuses to print until it's replaced.
So, I wouldn't recommend the cartridge because any owner of the printer would have no choice anyway.

Works well in my Epson 3800

USE AS REQUIRED FOR EPSON 3880 PRINTER

This Ink Maintenance tank for my Epson 3800 printer is wonderful! Easy to install, it saved the price of servicing it. Kudos to Epson! Jack Winberg

When you are out of maintenance tank you are out of production. It works

Don't forget to have an extra ink maintenance tank on hand.

If you use both the matte and glossy black inks on your 3800, be sure to order a replacement one of these to keep on hand. The tank fills up faster than you would think. If it's full, your printer won't work, even if you are not changing ink types at the time you try to print, and its not an item which is easy to get locally in most places.

I didn't know there was any such thing as the ink maintenance cartridge (MC) until I got a warning light and was unable to print. Even though the printer indicated that the MC was nearly full, I was unable to use the printer again until the replacement part arrived a few days later. My old Canon printer had a better system because it was possible to remove the waste ink collector and clean and dry it yourself. The Epson MC contains an electronic chip that can't, to my knowledge, be re-set.
